Abstract
Aim: Role of Multidetector Computed Tomography in Evaluation of Mediastinal Masses. Objectives: 1.To differentiates between benign and malignant mass lesions based on MDCT characteristics. 2. To evaluate the ability of MDCT to differentiate mediastinal masses based on CT characteristics and location. Result: Patient between 41 to 60 years is the most common age group having mediastinal mass and anterior mediastinal mass is the most common mediastinal mass. Conclusion: Multidetector computed tomography is a very useful modality in evaluating the mediastinal lesions, and provides precise information regarding the extent, tissue composition, lesion pattern enhancement and mediastinal and vascular invasion.
